Throttling rates

[OliasOfSunhillow]

Can anyone point me to a page that shows the free rates of access to various commands, particularly getMarketVolumeData

Thanks but this page does not explain the relationship between weight and how many times per minute you can access getMarketVolumeData for example.

Sorry my first post should have read using ListMarketBook

[OliasOfSunhillow]

I am supplying 'EX_TRADED' as the paramater

Does the exceeding of 200 pts refer to per minute, hence I need to pause for 12 seconds every access to avoid throttling ?. If yes is this irrespective of whether I access different markets ?.

OliasOfSunhillow, currently there is no Throttling on the API, only those limits on some requests (listMarketCatalogue, listMarketBook and listMarketProfitandLoss) and a limit on listMarketBook that states that you can only request each MarketID 5 times a second but that makes sense because prices are settled on 200 ms rounds. But you can hit the API as much times as you want.

The big question is what will happen in the future and we are all building applications and bots trying to guess what kind of service we will have.

Edit: As an example, if you don't exceed the 200 points you can ask for ListMarketBook 2000 times a second (as long as you don't ask for the same MarketID more than 5 times a second)

Thanks Lopiner
